Study on Continuous Casting of Steel by Sizes

Continuous casting of steel has gradually replaced traditional casting, due to many advantages such as: casting to a close form to the finished product, low steel losses, the possibility of sequential casting of steel, high productivity, quality of continuously cast product. To benefit of all these advantages, the continuous casting machine must be flexible relative to the demands of customers. This paper presents a comparative analysis relative to main parameters of steel continuous casting for more type of semi-finished product, by processing of data collected from a continuous casting plant with five casting wires. From this study, can be pointed reliable conclusions relatively to the correlation of casting factors and the operating parameters for casting machine and with quality indicators for semi-finished continuous casting product.
